This little cake is an absolute treasure. I wanted something simple and sweet so I whipped this up on the fly. It tastes like sugar cookies with a touch of almond. I’ve been experimenting with different sweeteners lately and I really like monk fruit sugar, you can find it here.

Ingredients

3 eggs

3/4 cup hemp milk

1/2 cup monk fruit sugar

1 1/2 cups almond flour

1/2 cup coconut flour

1/2 cup coconut oil -softened

pinch of salt

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

1 1/2 tsp vanilla or almond extract

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350F.

Line the bottom of an 8-inch round baking pan with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl cream the sugar and coconut oil then add the eggs, almond milk and vanilla extract, mix until smooth. Add the dry ingredients, mix until smooth.

Pour the batter into your cake pan. It is a thick batter, so don’t be alarmed. bake for 40 to 50 minutes.

Let cool .

Scoop 2-3 Tablespoon portions and roll them into balls. Place them 2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheet, then use the back of a fork to gently press twice in opposite directions to flatten the dough balls slightly.

Bake for 13-16 minutes until the cookies are firm on top (the centers will still be soft, though). Let cool and have at it.
